Demonstrating chemistry - spectacular experiments. The minty cola fountain. 7

Description

Prof. Hal Sosabowski demonstrates carbon dioxide gas coming out of solution at immense speed in this remarkable experiment, which needs only a bottle of fizzy drink and a packet of mints. The resulting eruption shows how nucleation sites can cause a reaction to occur spontaneously. Prof. Hal Sosabowski is a committed chemistry educator, evangelist and communicator. Hal shows us how to safely recreate his inspirational demonstrations, which are both educational and spectacular.
